The Phoebe Snow (Lyric) by horus8
{verse} What's the name of this train she said, "the Phoebe Snow ." At a ghost town station south of Buffallo The stops are Eerie, Lackawanna, and Ontario It even goes through the well wrote Poconos {chorus} Isn't that Niagara Falls I've got my barrel just no balls {Bridge} Jackson Pollack's shaving cream Lysergic acid paper dream Alan Ginsberg's corpse jerks nude I sure could go for some real food Isn't that Niagara Falls I've got my barrel just no balls {verse 2} A Yemenize village air raid ? she said, "it serves them right those fucking towel heads shouldn't look so busy late at night." Alah, Krishna, Jesus, and the mighty greek Zeus all took turns tying Adam's favorite noose Isn't that Niagara Falls I've got my barrel just no balls William Burrough's blackest pistol Shakespeare's swallowed sugar whistle Larry Rivers Kareoke lip syncs, "someone should fucking poison N'Sync." Isn't that Niagara Falls I've got my barrel just no ball No balls, i've got no nuts! I'm finally nuts.

50% of what you write goes sweeping past my head. Like the B2, I can't hear it til long after. I will ruminate.

it's a train that no longer runs (the phoebe snow)...a famous train...but now alot of middle easterners live in that area of upstate newyork, and some of them were picked up there recently for assisting the hijackers recently so i fused the head and the thorax of the creature (story lyrics) to form an arachnid prose song... media savy like captain o'mally

yeah..it does the same for me, but that's because it's a collaboration..i wrote the lyrics rushed, to a rushed piece of music, but it came from a strong idea from a friend of mine about this kind of 'ghost train'(called the phoebe snow) that used to run years ago through that area in newyork where they arreted those yemenize for conspiring with the 911 catastrophe. i wasn't exactly thrilled with the end product either, but sometimes live recording w/improv just goes down that way here it is. http://www.gangbox.com/mp3/The%20Phoebe%20Snow.mp3p
